As <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/02\/14\/trump-media-djt-earnings-report-2024.html\" target=\"_blank\">reported by CNBC<\/a><\/strong>, TMTG&#8217;s fortunes are something less than stellar&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The company\u2019s revenue declined 12% year over year, according to its annual report. The company saw its net loss widen to $400.9 million from $58.2 million in 2023.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So in 2024 Trump&#8217;s boondoggle lost nearly seven times what it lost in 2023. And 2025 isn&#8217;t looking any better. Except, that is, for Trump himself, who is skillfully fleecing his flock of cult disciples, while simultaneously providing a path for parties interested in greasing his palm for political favors. That includes adversarial foreign operatives who are buying influence, not investing. A brief history of TMTG reveals the risk of trusting Trump with your money&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=65052\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Wants to Run America Like his Businesses \u2013 Trump Media and Crypto \u2013 That are Crashing<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nSome analysts predicted that Trump\u2019s businesses would enjoy a surge in value after his reelection. That has not been the case. Trump Media has declined 25% just since his inauguration. What\u2019s more, Trump introduced a crypto coin just days before his inauguration. That has crashed 75% since then.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=64392\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Grifter-in-Chief Trump Puts His Truth Social Stock into a Phony Trust Controlled by His Son<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nA new SEC filing by the company revealed that Trump has transferred his majority share holdings to a revocable trust in an attempt to deceive the public that he is separating himself from financial interest in the enterprise. But like virtually everything else that Trump engages in, it is a thinly disguised scam structured to unscrupulously enrich himself.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=62568\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LOSER Trump\u2019s Truth Social is Well on its Way to Becoming His Next Bankruptcy<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nTMTG reported its earning for the second quarter of 2024. And it was not a pretty sight. As reported by Investor\u2019s Business Daily, \u201cTrump Media reported net sales of $836,000, down 30% vs. a year earlier. Operating costs soared to $19.5 million vs. $4.9 million a year earlier.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=62402\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump&#8217;s Truth Social is Shedding Users Like a Miserable Childless Woman&#8217;s Mangy Cat<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nThe Donald Trump-controlled Truth Social platform recorded its third straight month of declining traffic. Truth Social attracted 2,112,000 unique visitors, down 38% compared to June 2023 when the site generated 3,407,000 unique visitors. It was the platform\u2019s second worst traffic performance since June 2022 when Truth Social had only 1,891,000 unique visitors.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57278\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Crime Syndicate: Investors Arrested for Insider Trading in Failing Truth Social Scam<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nTrump&#8217;s associates in his truthless, anti-social media venture were arrested and charged with insider trading.

It is primarily an outlet for Trump&#8217;s malignant narcissism. So most people couldn&#8217;t care less. And even Trump&#8217;s devotees are likely bored by his relentless self-promotions. On Saturday morning, for instance, he posted 31 comments in nine minutes. They were mostly links to MAGA media like Fox News, Breitbart, and the New York Post, that spewed disinformation and lies.<\/p>\n<p>Although there were also pitiful comments <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/trumpstruth.org\/statuses\/29637\" target=\"_blank\">like this<\/a><\/strong>: <em>&#8220;He who saves his Country does not violate any Law.&#8221;<\/em> Which is pretty much a declaration of his belief that he is America&#8217;s dictator and not subject to those pesky legal trivialities that all the rest of us have to abide by.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/newscorpse.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In what may be the least surprising news of the year so far, Donald Trump&#8217;s flagship social media enterprise, Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) &#8211; the parent holding company of his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social &#8211; released its annual report on Friday that revealed just how big a failure it is.
